Axis by axis
Execution7 vs 5
Grand Prix 2 leans harder on execution: Precise braking and lines at sim fidelity demand real hands
Reads0 vs 0
Even - both lean on reads about the same.
Variance1 vs 2
SnowRunner leans harder on variance: Mud and ice physics surprise until terrain is learned.
Optimization8 vs 7
Grand Prix 2 leans harder on optimization: Car setup tuning - gears, springs, ride height - decides lap times
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
